Aiven talks in PostgresConf US 2018

April 20, 2018

By Oskari Saarenmaa

Part of our team spent this week in New York and Jersey City attending events and meeting our customers and partners in the area. The main event for our visit was the PostgresConf US 2018 conference in Jersey City just across te Hudson river from Manhattan.

The conference gave us a good opportunity to network and catch up with our custmers and partners as well as new contacts. We also gave two talks at the event which centered around connecting PostgreSQL with other open source tools, namely Apache Kafka. The talks we gave were:

PostgreSQL is a versatile RDBMS suitable for many different workloads with a huge ecosystem of robust tools and extensions

SQL is more relevant than ever before, it has outlasted its competition and is the universal language for data access, start using it in more systems

Slides for both talks are now available on GitHub
here, please see them for more information on combining PostgreSQL and Kafka.

Over the coming months we’ll be talking about these topics in more events around the world, including Kafka Summit in London next week and the OSS Summit in Japan in June. Other upcoming events and updates will be posted here, so be sure to follow us on
